Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

so, per your additional information the "spinner" has 4 possible results : 5, 4, 3 ,2

I guess, they are like the six numbers on a die equally probable.

that means the probabilty to get one of the 4 possible answers is 1/4 (desired outcomes over all possible outcomes).

now, to make the experiment twice and link the results as one desired outcome (like a 5 and a 2, or two 4s, or ...), we can multiply the probabilities as combined events without overlapping.

why ?

similar to a die with 6 possible results, we have here for every one of the 4 possible results of the first spin, we have 4 possible results of the second spin.

so, the probability of one particular set of 2 results is

1/4 × 1/4 = 1/16

in other words, it is 1/4 to get 5 on the second spin, and 1/4 to get 2 on the second spin. because we want both to happen as one desired result, both events have to happen as combination (and not as "or"). hence the multiplication.

Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in comment:

5,4,3,2 = Spinner

Thus, there are 4 possible answer

Given:

If you spin the spinner twice, what is the probability that the spinner will land on 5 on the first spin and 2 on the second spin?

1/16

3/16

1/8

1/4

Solve:

Knowing that there only <u>One 5 and One 2 on the spinner.</u>

Thus, in fraction form - 1/4 and 1/4

Probability land on 5 = 1/4

Probability land on 2 = 1/4

Because there are 4 possible solution and one of each is 5,4,3,2

Now, multiply then together:

1/4 × 1/4 = {1 ×1 = 1 and 4 × 4 = 16}

Put Together:

1/16

Hence, the answer is " The Probability that the spinner will land on 5 on the first spin and 2 on the second spin is 1/16

Consider the following function. f(x) = 16 − x2/3 Find f(−64) and f(64). f(−64) = f(64) = Find all values c in (−64, 64) such th
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

This does not contradict Rolle's Theorem, since f '(0) = 0, and 0 is in the interval (−64, 64).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=16-\frac{x^2}{3}

To find f(-64), we substitute x=-64 into the function.

f(-64)=16-\frac{(-64)^2}{3}

f(-64)=16-\frac{4096}{3}

f(-64)=-\frac{4048}{3}

To find f(64), we substitute x=64 into the function.

f(64)=16-\frac{(64)^2}{3}

f(64)=16-\frac{4096}{3}

f(64)=-\frac{4048}{3}

To find f'(c), we must first find f'(x).

f'(x)=-\frac{2x}{3}

This implies that;

f'(c)=-\frac{2c}{3}

f'(c)=0

\Rightarrow -\frac{2c}{3}=0

\Rightarrow -\frac{2c}{3}\times -\frac{3}{2}=0\times -\frac{3}{2}

c=0

For this function to satisfy the Rolle's Theorem;

It must be continuous on [-64,64].

It must be differentiable  on (-64,64).

and

f(-64)=f(64).

All the hypotheses are met, hence this does not contradict Rolle's Theorem, since f '(0) = 0, and 0 is in the interval (−64, 64) is the correct choice.

what is the correct upper and lower control limits for 8.42 pounds and the accectable range for plus or minus .65 pounds
sweet [91]

Answer:

9.07 and 7.77 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the upper control limit, add 0.65 lb to 8.42 lb, obtaining 9.07 lb.

To determine the lower one, subtract 0.65 lb from 8.42 lb, obtaining 7.77 lb.

21% of deaths among male adults can be attributed to heart diseases. Is this percentage different among residents in Sonoma Coun
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is usually the default statement while the alternative hypothesis is its opposite and usually tested against the null hypothesis.

In this case study, the null hypothesis is u = 21%/0.21, the percentage is not different among residents in Sonoma County and is equal to 0.21.

While the alternative hypothesis is u =/ 0.21, the percentage is different among residents in Sonoma County; not equal to 0.21

Form a polynomial f(x) with real coefficients having the given degree and zeros.
dimaraw [331]
There are many polynomials that fit the bill,
f(x)=a(x-r1)(x-r2)(x-r3)(x-r4)  where a is any real number not equal to zero.
A simple one is when a=1.
where r1,r2,r3,r4 are the roots of the 4th degree polynomial.
Also note that for a polynomial with *real* coefficients, complex roots *always* come in conjugages, i.e. in the form a&pm;bi  [&pm;=+/-]

So a polynomial would be:
f(x)=(x-(-4-5i))(x-(-4+5i))(x--2)(x--2)
or, simplifying
f(x)=(x+4+5i)(x+4-5i)(x+2)^2
=x^4+12x^3+77x^2+196x+164   [if you decide to expand]
